Kareena Kapoor Khan recently shared the two major reasons for her fights with her husband, actor Saif Ali Khan. She also explained why it is tough to be married to an actor.
Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan have been married for over a decade now, and they still argue over the air conditioner temperature. While Kareena prefers it a little warmer, Saif likes the AC set to its lowest temperature. They also have disagreements because their busy work schedules leave them with little time together.
During a recent interview with The Week, Kareena shared, “We surely fight over the AC temperature because Saif wants 16-degree celsius because he is feeling hot all the time and I am like, ‘Saif’ and he is like ‘I know people have got divorced because of AC temperature’. So he wants 16 and I want 20, and he be like let’s settle for 19, which is not too bad.”
And, when Kareena’s sister, Karisma Kapoor is visiting, she changes it to 25 degrees Celsius. “And every time Karisma comes home, and we are having dinner, Lolo slyly changes the temperature to 25 and Saif is like, ‘God! Thank God I am married to Bebo, because at least she settles for 19,'” Kareena added.
Another major reason for Kareena and Saif’s arguments is time. “I think most of the time the fight is for time because we have not seen each other. We don’t fight about money or anything like that, it is mainly because of the fact we are not getting enough time with each other or the fact that we are not seeing each other. It’s the only thing. And sometimes, I just fight with him because he allows Taimur to stay up a little late and I get fired up blaming him,” shared the ‘Crew’ actor.
She further explained the challenges of being married to an actor. Kareena said, “He came at 4:30 in the morning, he was sleeping and I left for work and he is woken up and probably left for a shoot and then I am flying to Bangkok tomorrow, so I won’t see him even though we are living in the same house. Balancing time is difficult. We sit down with the calendar to fix this day that time. This is what happens when there are two actors in the house.”
Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor got married on October 16, 2012. They are parents to two sons, Taimur and Jeh.
